About German (Deutsch) 5 Minute Typing Test

This 5-minute challenge is the standard benchmark used by employers and certification bodies to evaluate true German typing proficiency. At this duration, peak typing bursts average out, revealing your authentic sustained Anschläge pro Minute (APM) and word per minute rate. You will work through complex, authentic vocabulary paragraphs that incorporate capitalization, umlauts, and sharp S characters just like you would in real-world writing. It is the perfect training ground for candidates facing administrative testing or language students taking computer-based B2 to C2 exams. Warm up with the German typing test 1 minute before attempting this test. Alternatively, push your endurance even further with the German typing test 10 minutes.
